## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 02:31:05 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies mockape.fun as a medium-risk phishing domain that impersonated a paper trading platform. Despite being offline now, it posed a threat by attempting to steal sensitive user data and login credentials through deceptive means. Users should remain cautious of similar domains offering financial services.

This phishing site operated by mimicking legitimate trading tools, enticing users to enter confidential information under the guise of risk-free paper trading. The domain appeared suspicious due to its recent registration, presence on multiple security blocklists, and detection by VirusTotal with several security vendors flagging malicious activity. Such tactics are common in phishing campaigns aiming to exploit users’ trust in financial platforms.

To stay safe, avoid interacting with mockape.fun or any unfamiliar trading websites without thorough verification. Use official sources and double-check domain authenticity before providing any personal or financial details. Employ up-to-date security software and regularly monitor accounts for unusual activity to minimize risk from phishing attempts.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       595bc91948f1dce5d713c473259191effa2715c180a1c108a7c7f80844a2a2f5

## SCORING METHODOLOGY
----------------------------------------------------------------
Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates:
  - VirusTotal positive ratio
  - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus,
    CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB)
  - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor)
  - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.)
  - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing
  - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts
  - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording)
  - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures)
  - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...)
  - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal)
  - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record)
  - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team)

A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does
NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their
first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite
score and the individual indicators above, not just VT.
